An amber-coloured demon with a tail not unlike that of a scorpion. It contains a venom most potent, one that attacks not only the body but the mind as well.

Who brought the Obelisk to Central Park,
Redoubtable Commander H.H. Gorringe,
Whose name supplies the long-sought rhyme for 'orange.'"

Useful Info

Orange demons are melee-based tier-4 demons with reaching sting attacks that poison and weaken you. They are found in the Abyss, Pandemonium and the Hellmouth variant of Lair:8. They can be summoned by other monsters through the Summon Demon spell.

Tips & Tricks

They aren't very dangerous for even moderately well-armoured characters, but if you end up in the Abyss far too early, remembering that they can't fly might make escape a little easier. In general though, try to avoid fighting anything dangerous while weakened.

History

Prior to 0.13, orange demons lacked reaching and inflicted dexterity damage instead of weakness.
